An enterprise in Hangzhou announced the ＂996 working system＂! Netizen noisy CEO response
After the annual meeting of New Oriental, the annual meeting of another enterprise is also on fire! But it’s another way.
At the recent annual meeting of Hangzhou E-commerce Company, the company’s top management suddenly announced that it would implement the "996 working system", which caused widespread concern after the news spread on the Internet. "The annual meeting became a banquet", and some news and screenshots were released from the media. Some netizens who claimed to have praised employees said that they had called the mayor’s hotline to report.
On January 27th, some media reported that a praised CEO, White Crow, sent a message in response to this matter, saying, "Looking back a few years later, this is definitely a good thing".
The annual meeting was difficult
According to the PPT pictures of the annual meeting circulated on the Internet, there is a good "996 working system", that is, the normal working hours are from 9:30 am to 21:00 pm, and Wednesdays are family days. In case of emergency projects, the working hours will be longer if you work six days a week.
Subsequently, some netizens broke the news that Zanzan also issued relevant notices in the employee work group: starting from the week after the annual meeting, a new work and rest system will be implemented; And except Wednesday, you need to take annual leave before 9 pm, otherwise it will be considered absenteeism.
At the Zhihu, there was an annual meeting entitled "What do you think of" praise "and publicly announced the 996 working system? One of the anonymous respondents said that he was a witness to the annual meeting of Zanzan, and detailed some specific remarks made by Zanzan executives at the annual meeting:
The anonymous respondent also said that when praised executives talked about how to balance work and family at the annual meeting, they mentioned Ren Zhengfei’s example of persuading executives who were preparing to leave to divorce.
This example is actually like this. At that time, Li Yuzhuo, vice president of Huawei, was preparing to resign from Ren Zhengfei. The reason for his resignation was because of his good health and taking care of his family, while Ren Zhengfei expressed his retention. The dialogue between Li Yuzhuo and Ren Zhengfei was also exposed:
Ren Zhengfei said: "Then you can ask your lover to work in Shenzhen!" Li Yuzhuo said: "She has been to Shenzhen, stayed for a few months, was not used to it, and returned to Beijing." Ren immediately said, "What do you want with such a wife?"
After this passage was later spread, there was a saying that "Ren Zhengfei advised executives to divorce".
Everyone spits.
Unsurprisingly, this wave of operations has caused a lot of spit.
Some netizens said that the constant salary of 996 is equivalent to a collective salary reduction. This is not an annual meeting, and it is clearly the Hongmen banquet!
Some netizens also said that extending working hours is a disguised means of layoffs. I feel that this is to save layoffs, deliberately oppress employees, and let employees go by themselves, so that there is no need to compensate layoffs. HR is really witty.
Some netizens said: "Sacrifice the interests of employees for the money in your pocket, illegally implement 996, and complain together." Some netizens even said that they should call the mayor’s hotline to report, and called on more employees inside the company and employees of other Internet companies to resist.
Is it suspected of breaking the law?
The competition in the Internet industry is fierce, and overtime work has become a standard. However, it is rare to see such a blatant notice that the "996 working system" is implemented.
In 2016, 58 City also implemented the "996 working system" for all employees, which caused a large number of employees to resist angrily. At that time, many netizens who claimed to be employees of 58 City left messages under CEO Yao Jinbo’s Weibo, asking him to give an explanation. The company later responded that September and October are the peak stages of platform business flow every year, so there will be regular mobilization in September and October every year. The group will not force everyone to arrange their work in accordance with the provisions of "996".
According to Article 36 of the Labor Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC), China implements a working-hour system in which workers work no more than eight hours a day and no more than forty-four hours a week on average.
The "996 working system" obviously exceeds the working hours stipulated in the labor law.
Latest progress
On the afternoon of January 27th, some media reported that a praised CEO, White Crow, posted "Just Talking about enjoy" on his WeChat WeChat official account "White Crow", which was an indirect response to the above events. When he forwarded this article in a circle of friends, he said: Looking back a few years later, this time is definitely a good thing. Let more people know about the culture of praise, and it will also make talents think carefully when they want to enter, so that they will not be different before and after coming.
He also revealed that Youzan HR (Human Resources Department) has a hard rule, "When interviewing, you must tell the interviewer that many people are under great pressure, what are the requirements of Youzan, and it is uncomfortable here". The purpose is "I have the responsibility to tell you what I am like, and even enlarge my shortcomings. I must never coax you to come and leave unhappy for a while."
The following are the main views of the white crow:
-1-
Next, only young people are recruited in many basic positions, and people over a certain age must be interviewed by CEO Crow. The white crow teased that he really didn’t have time for an interview.
-2-
Half of us are technicians, and half of them leave the company after 9 o’clock every night. The taxi company that gets off work at 9: 30 is a subsidy for these friends who work late. There should be no company that reimburses all employees for taxis when they go to work normally. Therefore, we set up "Wednesday Family Day", asking everyone to go back to their families early on Wednesday and not stay in the company.

The white crow wants to cancel the aunt who cleans the workshop and conference room. In his view, how can a fighting army be followed by a group of nannies? "There is no nanny in Zan", you should solve your own problems, and you should clean the conference room and your workstation after you use it.
-4-
It is agreed to go to work at 9: 30 in the morning. It doesn’t matter if you are late occasionally, as long as you don’t arrive late on a large scale on the first floor.
-5-
In 2018, the number of people who liked it doubled, and there were many problems, but it was not a disaster scene, so it was a good job. However, there are many shortcomings in recruitment and cultural propaganda.
-6-
Anyone who joins this company, I have the responsibility to tell you what kind of corporate culture it is to have praise. "As for whether you agree with our culture, that’s your business, and I can’t influence it. Everyone has their own family of origin, growth environment, professional resume, and their own culture and values. We can’t try to change others. "
-7-
In 2019, if a certain quarter is really busy, it may be acceptable to say "OKR assessment is saved this quarter", but the assessment of values must not be saved.
-8-
It will take a long time for a person to rest for ten days in a row before returning to work. Therefore, some people will ask you to report to the CEO if you take more than three days off before and after the 7-day long vacation. "I don’t want to embarrass you by reporting, and I can’t even remember what so many people are calling and who is taking a long vacation, but I need to feel the proportion of our overall long vacation. We chose a startup company, that is, we may not take enough care of our lives. This is what I must make clear to you. You can disapprove, but we don’t want to coax you. "

Ren Zhengfei has a joke (about telling Li Yuzhuo that he can’t stay with his family and wants to leave, so tell him, "Why do you leave? You can get a divorce?"). Ren Zhengfei has brought his dedication to the extreme, and we can’t do that. Telling this joke doesn’t mean that we can do the same, but I admire Huawei’s principle of recruiting only people with the same taste.
